In the shipping and logistics industry, efficiency, visibility, and accuracy are everything. Late deliveries, rising costs, and customer complaints can quickly damage trust and profitability. Traditional tracking methods—like manual spreadsheets or scattered reports—often create more confusion than clarity.
That’s why we created the Shipping KPI Dashboard in Excel—a professional, ready-to-use performance management tool that helps logistics managers, freight forwarders, and supply chain professionals track, analyze, and improve shipping performance with ease.
This Excel-based dashboard consolidates all shipping metrics into one structured platform. Instead of juggling multiple files, you get a single, interactive system that provides real-time insights, variance analysis, and historical comparisons. With built-in visuals, conditional formatting, and trend charts, it transforms raw shipping data into actionable intelligence.
